Star Scores is both a performance and immersive sculptural installation by Roberto Carlos Lange (also known as Helado Negro) and visual artist Kristi Sword. The piece features a live ensemble performance of four experimental compositions, paired with an impressionistic film that explores the imperceptible forces that shape the West Texas landscape and the Appalachian skies. Parts of the film were originally commissioned by Ballroom Marfa and organized by Sarah Melendez.
The installation, featuring large-scale weather balloons, never-before-seen abstract visuals by Sword, and an immersive soundscape by Lange, will be on view in the Barbara Lee Family Foundation Theater, included with museum admission, at the following times:
